Messenger of Dionysos · Mused by Apollo

In ancient times, Satyr was the horned and horny messenger of Eleusinian forest god Dionysos. He mesmerized the youth of nearby villages with the musical magic of his flute and made them dance till broad daylight. In our common present, the spirit of Satyr inhabits the body of a human boy. Searching for a new way to spread the vibe of the forest, Satyr switched to SL and CDJ instruments, which fit the job quite nicely.

Ozmali Records' first release is shaking the trees!! Originally made as a part of the Ozmali live act, all of the tracks on this album have been recorded in a seamless mix, selected to quiver your spine and shuffle your brain.

Ozmali's music is a melting pot of sound encountered on extensive travels around the world, inspired by the spirits of nordic forest-parties and jungle-parties in the south, as well as the deeper psychedelic sound from the ground. No need to find a common denominator between full on, dark or progressive - simply label it: psychedelic.

Behind Ozmali we find Steven from Amsterdam, who has been travelling the globe as an all-round dj for more than ten years, and is performing live since 2006. Being a true psychedelic artist he crosses boundaries that are commonly perceived. Some of his inspirations include Droidsect, Elvis and Texas Faggott. Aside from his own, Steven is involved with various music projects and is a visual artist as well. You will be hearing more from this sense blending artist very soon.

freakuently unanswered questions

? what is Satyr

! in ancient times, Satyr roamed the Eleusinian forests as the horned and horny messenger of Dionysos - the god of ritual intoxication. He mesmerized the youth of nearby villages with the musical magic of his flute, and made them dance till broad daylight.

? where is Satyr

! in our recent past, Satyr reincarnated in the concrete jungle of Amsterdam as a DJ. At age ten, he recorded his first mix, displaying his love for early hip hop and electro, and soon his tapes were in high demand. After the Second Summer Of Love, he got turned on by new dimensions of synthetic sound and ventured into the realms of acid-house, techno and trance music.

? does he still play flute

! the Panflute has become an artefact in captivity, held safe and sound in the archeological archive of the Vatican. Yet, ever since the early 1990s, up and until our common present, Satyr became increasingly skilled as a player of the SL & CDJ instruments, spinning various styles of eclectronica and edm alike, embracing a wide range of the bpm spectrum with remarkable sparkle.

Difficult to pigeonhole yet sharply focused on and specialized in ambidelic chillout, psytrance, tech trance, uptech and several kinds of steps; entertaining events for 50 to 50.000 people, by serving his spicy melange of clean cuts and dirty grooves, mixing it down and grinding it up from raw to smooth.
